The Descent

[Talivar]

Best horror film for ages IMO

..never heard about it

It's gotten a hammering by the critics if my information is correct. Personally, I think I'll give it a miss, mainly because the trailer made it look like cack.

After the trailer? I think not. A movie in the blair witch style of boredom.

trailer makes it look like stig of the dump gone bad meets potholers.

Is nothing like blair witch
Is a proper horror full of jumps and gore and desperation,not some silly film with ppl talking into a camera

This is one of the films where you have to ignore the tralier.

A mate at work commented how good this film was and I took my gf along to see if he was right.

And he was...

I won't say to much otherwise it will spoil the film. Nowadays you tend to know what is going to happen in horror films, but in this one you have no clue and there are some very unique jumpy moments, including a point where I shouted out . The camera work is spot on making you feel as you are there and the story is believable.

See it and you'll not be disappointed!

very good film just came back from watching. even dog soldiers didnt look that good going by the trialer but was good film too. this director is going places i hope he dont make the jump to hollywood tho

Like dog soldiers, its better in the first parts of the movie, where its more suspense rather than blatent gore, was quite decent overall though

 

[Ch3tan]

Well I took the plunge.

Great beggining, good middle, too gory and wasteful in the end.

Really a good experience in the cinema, with people swearing and jumping and laughing because they cant believe what they have just seen.

Best way to explain it is "fucked up"

Never saw it...i will
